about

Dan is a DJ, producer and presenter who started Hoxton FM (200k+ listeners) and a number of London parties to connect with forward thinkers and share the music that inspires him.

His sets deliver deep dubby minimal house and techno with big basslines and energetic grooves across vinyl and digital formats. Lock in to his Focal radio show on www.Hoxton.FM from 5-7pm GMT every Friday live from the studio or his favourite record shops, bars and clubs.

In 2011 Dan founded Hoxton FM to break new talent and share inspirational music, art, fashion and culture.  The station holds quality, diversity and innovation in the highest regard.  Currently there are in excess of 200,000 unique listeners per month tuning in online to over 85 different shows which are also viewable via Chew.TV and Facebook Live.

His annual Day of Hugs 24 hour fancy dress parties at Smedmore House on the Dorset coast have pushed boundaries from their inception in 2006. You could find DJ's playing everywhere from cliff-top towers to tree houses and audiences suspended in sky-nets or bubbling out in jacuzzis.
